I never said otherwise. Presumably the actual game is organised by the two FAs when it is a friendly and merely sanctioned/rubberstamped by UEFA/FIFA/whoever. Just because there's an international break it doesn't have to be filled with a meaningless friendly.Ducado said:jimharri said:Exactly. Give the players a chance to recharge their batteries. Those that aren't playing in the play-offs or in bloody friendlies. What the fuck are the FA playing at, organising a meaningless friendly in the middle of the season? Play-offs are one thing; I can understand them. But a friendly against Spain. Fuck me, are they that short of cash that they need to shoe horn this game into the schedule? Wankers.zeven said:TBF i think its needed and come at the right time! the players need "mental" rest.
next couple of games are very hard and now they will be 100 per cent up for it!
''And r-e-l-a-x!''
Is it not FIFA or UAFA that organise the international breaks?
...i think its needed and come at the right time as we ourselves need "financial" rest with sh£llin out for all our back-back matches of late.zeven said:TBF i think its needed and come at the right time! the players need "mental" rest.

yes they do but you do not have to arrange a pointless friendly just because its international week
